In her classic book, Elisabeth Elliot candidly shares her love story with Jim Elliot through letters, diary entries and memories. She is honest about the temptations, difficulties, victories and sacrifices of two young people whose commitment to Christ took priority over their love for each other.
These revealing personal glimpses, combined with relevant biblical teaching, will remind readers that only by putting their human passion and desire through His fire can God purify their love. In a culture obsessed with dating, sex and intimacy, the need for Elliot's freeing message is greater than ever.
"The book you're holding tells a very moving love story. It's honest. It's practical. But even as it addresses the real questions and concerns of single men and women it always lifts our gaze upward - to the Maker who created us for Himself."
- Joshua Harris, Author of I Kissed Dating Goodbye
